Hm. OK, that makes sense. I was thinking that the plastic wouldn't fare well in the microwave, especially for five minutes. In my experience plastic wrap melts a bit with the heat and develops holes. But if you're able to pop it into the microwave then that at least explains their existence.
I think I'd still just buy the cheaper potato and microwave it though. Oh, also, I always poke holes in my potatoes before I microwave them. Do you not do that with the plastic-wrapped ones?
